DENPA VT-50 1Gb Digital Voice Recorder, FM Radio, MP3 Player, USB file storage, wireless mic compatible

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Voice Recorders
from: DENPA by Techstyle UK Ltd.


The Denpa VT50 is approximately the size of a normal mobile phone and fits nicely in the hand. The LCD is of a reasonable size which is quite readable for those with 50+ years old eyes (expect for the EQ symbols). It met my specific requirements for a device that had in-built MP3 encoding from microphone, line input and FM radio. In addition a removable rechargeable battery was a must. The controls are quite intuitive and consist of the almost standard mobile phone 4 way navigation key with centre button, a DEL key and a MODE key on the front. The record, stop and play buttons are on the side. It wont take long to get used to the various modes of recording etc. Pictures can be seen on the website www.techstyle.co.uk So what was it like ...

Sony Digital Dictation Long Rec+FM Tuner

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Voice Recorders
from: Sony

Well firstly I must point out that Amazon have incorrectly listed this item as only having 64mb of memory - In actual fact it has 256mb of memory.

The max recording times in LP mode is 130 hours & 25 minutes or 29 hours & 45 minutes in HQ mode. The voice recorder works perfectly and the desktop software supplied is more than up to the job.

FM Radio works very well, overall a nice set of features for the money, but the build quality isn't perfect, as the ... Read More:

Sony 1gb Digital Dictation Pink

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Voice Recorders
from: Sony

It's simple to use and pretty to look at, but the recording leaves much to be desired. If you are recording at close range the Sony does a great job, but with distance the recorded volume falls of hugely and is over shadowed with an annoying background hiss. This makes it too difficult, if not nearly imppossible, to hear through the in-built speaker or supplied headphones. The only way that I could make sense of things was to use a set of headphones with a volume control and the Sony's microphone sensitivty set to maximum. Given the price of these gadgets the Sony's performance is well below acceptable. I do not have experience of hard drive dictation machines, but my minidisc was far better than this. This item is going back and I'm of to Olympus, ... Read More:
